(9 points) The speed of the wind is measured with a venturi, atube of narrowing cross section with a "U"-shaped tubeFlowconnected between the two sides. The ratio of the radii of thewide and narrow parts of the top tube is 2:1, and liquid Eeeniumof density 10,000 kg/m' partially fills the U-tube.Determine Hwhen a gust of 250 km/h enters the wide end of the upper tube.Assume the air does not compress inside the venturi. Youranswer should be a number.

According to the equation of continuity of flow,

A fire hose has an inside diameter of 6.40 cm. Suppose such a hose caries a flow of 40.0 L/s starting at a gauge pressure of 1.62106 N/m2. The hose goes 10.0 m up a ladder to a nozzle having an inside diameter of 3.00 cm. Calculate the Reynolds numbers for flow in the fire hose and nozzle to show that flow in each must be turbulent.

A submarine is stranded on the bottom of the ocean with its hatch 25.0 m below surface. Calculate force needed to open the hatch from the inside, given it is circular and 0.450 m in diameter. Air pressure inside the submarine is 1.00 atm.
A frequency quoted rule of thumb aircraft design is that wings should produce about 1000 N of lift per square meter of wing. (The fact that a wing has a top and bottom surface does not double its area.) (a) At takeoff, an aircraft travels at 60.0 m/s, so that the air speed relative to the bottom of the wing is 60.0 m/s. Given be sea level density of air as 1.29kg/m3, how fast must it move over be upper surface to create the ideal lift? (b) How fast must air move over the upper surface at a cruising speed of 245 m/s and at an altitude where air density is one-fourth that at sea level? (Note that his not all of be aircraft's lift—some comes from be body of the plane, some from engine thrust, and so on. Furthermore, Bernoulli's principle gives approximate answer because flow over wing creates turbulence.)
Suppose a blood vessel's radius is decreased to 90.0% of its original value by plague deposits and the body compensates by increasing pressure difference along the vessel to keep the flow rate constant.
